How has business been recently?


It’s been pretty slow. Over the Christmas period it was really good. But right now there are simply no new releases coming out.


What’s been selling well? Titanfall. We have had pretty high pre-orders on Infamous: Second Sonand FIFA 14is selling pretty well as per usual, too.


What’s the biggest challenge you face? We don’t have any really. HMV and GAME both


closed down, so we’re doing pretty well in our area at the moment. Our only challenge is a supermarket.


So not much in the way of competition? We have a Cash Converter, which tried to compete with us on gaming, but people still want to come to proper game stores.


How do you set yourself apart from the rivals? We have been here for such a long time. It’s a family run business and we know most of the customers. Plus, we


PRICE CHECK: NOTTINGHAM


sell things on the internet now and we have fantastic service and knowledge, too.


Have you started digital download cards? CentreSoft has provided us with codes for PSN. They are selling really well. They are great because you only pay once they have been bought. There’s no risk of buying in lots of stock, it not selling and being out of pocket.
